Topic: Lampwork paperweight - id help please (Read 1730 times)

I'd appreciate your help in identifying this pansy lampwork paperweight. It measures 2.61 inches diameter by 2.1 inches high and has a brown and yellow flower with stem and three leaves. The leaves have two rows of bubbles running along them. The centre of the flower has a complex millefiori cane though it is not very distinct. The flower rests on a swirl ground made of 26 milky white rods. The base is concave with a wide rim that has been worn matt with age. The weight seems quite heavy ie made of lead crystal.

I wonder if you have learned anything new aout this papeweight. I'd like to post a picture of it on my website at some time in the future. If you want, send me a private email. Just click on my website link below for my email.
